Telford 2019

[NARSES2]

Thought I'd kick this off as we are just under 6 weeks away 

Hotel is booked (it was booked a year ago, otherwise it sells out) and trains are booked. Both my pre-order and wants lists are being prepared and I think I know which couple of modes I'll be taking.

So preparations are well on the way

You're one of the Early Birds then?

I haven't even thought about it yet, but luckily I don't have any accommodation problems these days, thanks to the RAF's Best Air Traffic Controller.

Accommodation is the main problem Kit. Telford has a distinct lack of hotel space for somewhere that markets it'self as a major conference centre. You can stay in Shrewsbury or even Wolverhampton/Birmingham but then I'd be trusting that the trains ran over the weekend and there wasn't "Weekend Engineering Works"  . You really do have to book a year in advance and I won't even mention the prices they charge ! Lets just say my Sunday night bill is third of the previous nights rate.

When?! 
I know I slept well last night but pretty sure it is still 2019. Or is it...?

I'm booked into my usual campus place across the motorway. Booked it in June. £153 Bed and Breakfast for 3 nights.

Sat at the bench now working out what to finish for either the London table or the What-if table. Lots of choice and a worrying amount of dust.    Definitely want to get the little German tanks done to go with Martins huge land battleship!

Will probably have a major sale of unwanted kits too. Got some books to go as well.

I was thinking the same too!

I don't know about 2020 yet but I aim to be there at least on the Saturday this year.
I have a work appointment in Birmingham on the Friday so I'm nearby.

Now that is either extreamly good luck, or very careful planning..........

Either way Nicely done  Look forward to seeing you agin.

My only excuses are that :-

a) I'd just had a couple of nights in hospital

b) I will need to start thinking about accommodation for 2020 very shortly

c) I'm a daft old fart

We can discuss this on Wednesday, Chris! 

[Gondor]

Not going to be there this year or next, this year due to lack of funds and next years as a nephews fiance inconsiderately decided they should get married that weekend

[PR19_Kit]

Suggest they get married in Shropshire then...............

Would love to but somehow I don't think that they would go for that
